38 Republicans Who Voted Against Trump-Backed Spending Bill

Washington, U.S. – With just over a day before a potential government shutdown, the House of Representatives rejected a spending bill backed by President-elect Donald Trump.

The measure, introduced by House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), failed to secure the two-thirds majority required to pass under the suspension of the rules. The final vote tally stood at 174-235-1.

Thirty-eight Republican lawmakers voted against the bill, despite Trump’s endorsement, which he described as “a very good deal for the American people.”

The legislation also faced resistance from a majority of Democrats, although Reps. Kathy Castor (D-Fla.) and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D-Wash.) crossed party lines to support it.

The bill was introduced as an alternative after an earlier bipartisan package collapsed amid widespread GOP opposition and Trump’s vocal disapproval.

The 38 Republican representatives who voted against the measure include:

  1. Aaron Bean (Fla.)
  2. Andy Biggs (Ariz.)
  3. Josh Brecheen (Okla.)
  4. Tim Burchett (Tenn.)
  5. Eric Burlison (Mo.)
  6. Kat Cammack (Fla.)
  7. Michael Cloud (Texas)
  8. Andrew Clyde (Ga.)
  9. Eli Crane (Ariz.)
  10. John Curtis (Utah)
  11. Jeff Duncan (S.C.)
  12. Russ Fulcher (Idaho)
  13. Bob Good (Va.)
  14. Paul Gosar (Ariz.)
  15. Andy Harris (Md.)
  16. Wesley Hunt (Texas)
  17. Doug Lamborn (Colo.)
  18. Debbie Lesko (Ariz.)
  19. Greg Lopez (Colo.)
  20. Morgan Luttrell (Texas)
  21. Nancy Mace (S.C.)
  22. Thomas Massie (Ky.)
  23. Richard McCormick (Ga.)
  24. Cory Mills (Fla.)
  25. Alexander Mooney (W.Va.)
  26. Blake Moore (Utah)
  27. Nathaniel Moran (Texas)
  28. Ralph Norman (S.C.)
  29. Andy Ogles (Tenn.)
  30. Scott Perry (Pa.)
  31. Bill Posey (Fla.)
  32. Matt Rosendale (Mont.)
  33. Chip Roy (Texas)
  34. David Schweikert (Ariz.)
  35. Keith Self (Texas)
  36. Victoria Spartz (Ind.)
  37. Thomas Tiffany (Wis.)
  38. Beth Van Duyne (Texas)

The legislation was designed to prevent a shutdown and suspend the debt ceiling, but its rejection leaves the government perilously close to running out of funding. If no agreement is reached, a shutdown will commence at 11:59 p.m. local time on Friday.

House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) hinted at ongoing discussions but confirmed the current bill will not advance to the Rules Committee. “Not on this bill … not right now,” Scalise told reporters. “We’re going to have some more talks. I won’t say anything’s dead because we’re going to continue having talks.”

The impasse highlights divisions within the GOP and the difficulty of bridging the gap between conservative hardliners and moderates, even with Trump’s influence. With time running out, Capitol Hill lawmakers face mounting pressure to avert a shutdown.
